Best Cannabis Strains To Use As A Sleep Aid and Pain

[camkush]

As a person that has autoimmune conditions I know all to well what lack of sleep can do to your body and mind. For a year I was on Ambien and 3 benedryl to be able to sleep at night due to pain and insomnia. I have been doing a lot of research on this and have actually taken myself off of my Ambien with the help of cannabis. I thought I would share what I have read on strains that help and also add the ones I have tried that work.
Research based strains that I will be trying in future:

Purple Kush- A pure indica strain, it helps by giving you a full body relaxation. It can relieve stress and promote a deep sleep. It also aids in pain and mood issues.

Blue Cheese- Is said to calm your mind as well as giving a sedative effect. This strain has also been known to aid in pain and insomnia.

Bubba Kush- Known to be one of the most potent strains. Helps with anxiety and muscle tension. With a calm sleepy high. Is also known to help with depression, moodiness ,muscle spasm's, and pain.

I am eager to try these strains just to see if they live up to the descriptions. Now to the strains I have been able to try.

Alaskan Purple by Seedsman- This was a sedating heavy high. It was also one of the strains that did help with my pain and insomnia. It was one that I will grow again as I can see its medicinal properties. It also was one that did elevate my mood. so sleepy and happy

Purple Dosi Punch by Growers Choice- She was a fantastic blend between a sleeper and just over all happy go lucky today is a good day kind of high. She was good for light pain.

Pink Crystal by Growers Choice- - I love this strain for a few reasons. 1. She was my very first grow 2. She is a great couch lock haha. She has an amazing fruity smell and she worked great for pain and as a sleeper.

I will continue to add any of the strains I try that really seem to help in certain areas. Feel free to add ones you have tried and what it helped you with. Cannabis has allowed me to come off some really nasty pills and I am very thankful for that.

Will be following this thread with interest since i also got sleeping issues with around 2 hours of sleep per night and 24/7 severe back pain.
And if i find a strain that is being beneficial when it comes to sleep and pain i will for sure add it here for you to read and try out yourself.

I found Sweet Seeds - Cream 47 was amazing at getting me to sleep back in the day. It doesn't come on too strong, has a nice relaxing feeling and gently rocks you to sleep. Sensi Seeds - Shiva Skunk on the other hand makes you think you've smoked a ciggy then hits you over the head with a sledgehammer like "Go to bed NOW!" so it depends what you want.

Cream 47 also did wonders for my back pain after being bent in half backwards by a 13 foot wave while surfing. Fun times

I've had 55 years of lack of sleep. I'd love to find something that works...

This is an interesting thread for me as I am looking for something to help me sleep, @KDsdescription of Shiva skunk sounds pretty good round about now.
For fibro pain, kritikal Bilbo from genetiks is the best one I have found yet but I'm always looking for others to try....

Sleep aid strain.
The ones I've tried recently and they work for sleep are White rhino and Growers choice wedding cake gelato.
That GC one really slap's me.
The Rhino is a creeper but also recommend for pain.

White rhino was one of the ones I was looking at when I did Cream 47 but the seeds were sold out at the time :(

The Green house ones are good but I couldn't get any at the time.
I've got some from Nirvana seeds to try.
I'll let you know how they do.
